Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Mon 28 Sep, 06:53–18:46 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 18:16 on Sun 27 Sep to 19:29 on Mon 28 Sep; harivasara ends at 00:34. So parana runs from sunrise on Mon 28 Sep, 06:53. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:46: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:16.
